Al Kooper - New York City (You’re a Woman) lyrics
[Al Kooper - New York City You’re a Woman lyrics]
Please let me in
I've got something to share, and if you care
Let me play a song or two
They're only just for you
New York City you're a woman
Cold hearted bitch ought to be your name
Oh, you ain't never loved nobody
Yet I'm drawn to you like a moth to flame
Yeah
Oh, I have suckled you in my sorrow
And I have sinned with you, Lord, in my shame
But, you ain't never even seen me, yeah
New York City i'm tryin' to beat your game
Oh, and I rise up, Lord, and I fall down
It's all in the merit, yeah, of my ways
Oh, don't you dare try and stop me now
I am settled right here in your haze
Oh, and I am stuck here
Now in the final phase
Yeah yeah
Yeah woo!
Don't you send me to the country, Lord
'Cause, I ain't ready
I ain't ready to concede
Now I will tell you when I'm ready
And I will call to you
From down upon my knees
Oh, I might be standing
But, I'll be down on my knees, yeah
Yes, I will ooh
New York City you know you're a woman
Cold hearted bitch ought to be your name
Oh, you ain't never loved nobody
Still I'm drawn to you like a moth to flame
And I guess that it's silly
To think you'll ever change, yeah
Hey hey
New York City new York City
You're everything, my heart and soul inside
New York City oh, I'm stuck here
Lord, I'm stuck inside of
New York City (Oh yeah, yeah) new York City
Oh, I been with ya up and I been with ya down
New York City
I can't get myself out of this town
New York City i feel it inside me
I feel it every day of my life new York City
I can't break loose, it’s all over me, yeah
New York City (yeah, New York City)
New York City (Come on, yeah) new York City
You're a part of my life in every which way
New York City
Everything I ever meant and everything I say
New York City new York City
